Folks, let’s close out this work week the right way and head into a proper fall weekend outfitted accordingly. I’ve been back in Brooklyn and taking care of my many freelance writing pursuits this week after last weekend’s jaunt to Cincinnati to try out local craft beer and of course, dress in style to see my favorite band, the ever-stylish and elegant Ohio-born rockers The National. If you followed along with all the fun on my Instagram, well, thanks for passing by!

Now though, I’ve got my mind squarely on even more fall style essentials, especially from a brand like Filson. That should come as no surprise to you if you pass through the blog on the regular, but it’s especially worth highlighting today, now that we’re officially into fall (the best season for menswear).

In fact, if rugged menswear essentials are your thing, I think you’ll enjoy a touch of reading with your shopping over at the legendary Pacific Northwest outfitter. For my friends at Maxim, I covered the standout new Filson x Chris Stapleton Traveller Collection, a series of hard-wearing, road-ready essentials designed in partnership with the country rocker. Talk about a match made in heaven, right?

I’d urge you to give that collection a good long look before you hit the road, and I’ll also leave you with my Filson review of the legendary Filson Tin Cloth Cruiser Jacket. It’s an indispensable fall style classic, as with much of the rest of the lineup from one of my favorite brands. Wear it well, shop carefully this weekend, and enjoy a local beer from your favorite brewery for me. Until tomorrow’s Style Pick of the Week, cheers and thanks for reading, my friends!
